Kemba Walker - Blazers do what you can to get this guy. The highlights are impressive, but make sure to check out the score and time left in the game against QUALITY opponents. A lot of these highlights are in crunch time with the score tied or within a few points.
With Brandon Roy's knees, the Blazers could use a guy like Walker to play point guard and generate points off the dribble like a Rose or Westbrook. And he already has a better jumper than either of those guys.
Kemba Walker is one of two players in this draft who have serious star potential (the other one is Derrick Williams). Blazers need a perimeter star who can get his shot whenever he wants badly. All accounts he is a high character guy. He is graduating from UCONN in 3 years, so you know he works hard off the court as well. So go get him.
Here is another video if you want to see more. It is more extensive and includes commentary from a lot of experts and even president.

Sooo....
He overvalues both his own role on a team and the quality of his fans…

I think Kemba has more ankle braking potential that Jason Terry
That subtle added change of direction ability and having the ball on a string makes a big difference.
I love his game and his confidence.
How much would we have to give up to get him, though? DraftExpress has him at #3 right now. I’m not sure if it’d be worth it.
